Dear reader
I have read most of the things about triternions. And rendered some of the frms/pars. A lot of things are coming into my head. Some of them I try to write down here. I hope I will get some comment. <snipped>
These latest two triternion formulas come the closest yet to the ideal triternion M-set, which would have no foreshortening and skewing. I have a short formula that draws very similar images with far less calculating. Unfortunately, I have never figured exactly what the formula does, but I have included two parameter files for comparison with the triternion formulas.
